Geeze you guys have a lot of excuses not to join a simple website. Joining CKA wasn't to conformist for you was it?


You like facebook good on you. We just have no use for it. Many people our age join it to be on it. It's the "in" thing. I've just never been much of a follower.
I understand that, but a lot of people joined it to connect with friends. Apperantly young people nowadays don't do things because others do? What other things won't you do because everyone else does? No tattoo's for you, or earings, forget a drivers license.


Tattoo's never I hate needles. I'm sorry If you find me harsh I just prefer to not blindly follow.
:roll:


Like Dan said Roight....Dan and I just don't make great sheep.
Yup that's why people join cuz their sheep. :roll:


You aren't listening to what we are saying. In our age bracket the number one reason people join is to be "cool" so to speak. Dan and I don't give a shit about being cool. We value what we do with our time and face book membership would add no value to our lives. We aren't saying you are lame for joining, you have valid reasons to join.
:lol: I think you are analyzing Facebook a little too much. Christ it's just a website. It's like CKA. Why did you join this website? To communicate with people maybe?


Facebook was originally presented as a mode with which to reach out to old friends. In then took off in the teen to young adult set as "THE" place to be if you were anyone. Kind of like the hot new bar in town, you might not like the service, the atmosphere, but you go anyway because to not would put you outside of the "in" crowd. CKA is a board based in politics,entertainment,Canadian content things Dan and I both enjoy and get something out of. For "us" to join facebook would be like going to that hot new bar when he doesn't drink and i hate bars.

I think it actually started out as a socializing site for college students.

I don't think joining Facebook has anything to do with being cool. Some of us, like myself, join because it's the easiest way to keep in touch with people, especially since I'm living abroad.

I can post my pictures, stories, blurbs, whatever, all in the one spot and everyone can read it instead of me having to email everyone and repeat myself over and over again. It makes me feel more connected to those back home and for that I'm grateful!

It has nothing to do with being cool. Nothing at all.

I joined CKA because it's Canadian. I joined Nexopia because my friends are on it.

I didn't join MySpace or Facebook for the lack above two reasons.

*sigh* No one ever listens. Facebook has usefulness if you have lost touch with people you want to contact again. But I haven't lost touch with any one. So there is no reason for me to sign up. The people from highschool didn't either. They signed up because everyone else did.

Agreed!

Well,a ctually, thankfully, the Facebook hype died here quickly because it's nto much of a teen website and isn't that... Fun.

Instead, here in Alberta, they hype is Nexopia.com...

A Canadian Website, that kicks Facebook's and Nexopia's ass. The good part for me is that everyone joined it here, meaning that I don't have to walk half way across the city to find them, lol

Not really.

Everyone else was joining it, Tricks and Nova found no interest in it and did no follow the rush.

Thus Them = Not Sheep

That's not what we have been saying. We have had no reason to join, and are happy that we aren't following a trend because it is a trend. That's all.
